Ravindra Jadeja eyes better bowling show ahead of Mohali's clash
India’s under-fire bowling attack would be eyeing an improved outing with the pressure especially mounting on veteran Ravindra Jadeja when the home team takes on the West Indies in the third and final ODI here on Saturday.
India have dominated the series but rather than their performance, the talk has centered around the batting friendly pitches. afsport.lat
With the series already in their pocket, India will look for their new-ball bowlers to finally make an early dent. The bowling attack has been left wanting, picking up just one wicket in the first 10 overs across the two games and leaking 177 runs in the two Powerplays.
India have struggled to get wickets in the middle overs with Kuldeep Yadav not getting much support from the other bowlers. An experienced campaigner like Jadeja is under scrutiny having picked up just three wickets in his last eight games.
